 # Expiration Examples
 
-* Below in this LUA example we will count the number of times a player has talked to an NPC, first by checking if we've got a bucket set at all, if not we will set an expiration time on it using unix time. Each time we call set_data, it will not over-ride the original expiration time unless we pass a new time parameter

+### Acceptable Time Formats
+
+We have the ability to use time shorthands if need-be, the following are acceptable time inputs
+
+ * 15s = 15 seconds
+ * s15 = 15 seconds
+ * 60m = 60 minutes
+ * 7d  = 7 days
+ * 1y  = 1 year
+ * 600 = 600 seconds
+
 ### Perl Expiration
 
 * To set an expiration time in Perl, very similarly to the LUA example above, you would simply call your `set_data` function with an expiration flag as your 3rd parameter like so
 
 ```perl
-quest::set_data("my_example_flag", "some_value", time() + 3600); # 3600 seconds = 1 hour (Expire in 1 hour)
+quest::set_data("my_example_flag", "some_value", 3600); # 3600 seconds = 1 hour (Expire in 1 hour)
 ```
